Police said Valentine wanted images from his phone to show up on his TV screen and couldn't figure out how to do it, so he called Bright House.

While a Bright House employee was fixing the problem, pornographic images of young boys from the phone's camera roll appeared on the TV screen.

According to a police report, Valentine began fumbling and cursing at his phone. The cable worker left and called police.

The OCSO conducted an investigation and got a search warrant. When inside Valentine's south Orange County apartment, police said they found 55 DVDs and 11 CDs, along with images and videos on Valentine's phone. In all, police said they found 96 images of boys, but they said they could only determine 34 of them to be pornographic.

During Valentine's initial appearance, the judge ordered him not to have contact with the victim and not to have any contact with people under the age of 18. He is not allowed to use a computer.
